Lynskey Sportive with SRAM Red

Time to unveil what we've been up to over at Iron Cycles!

If you're anything like us, you like bikes. Riding bikes. Working on bikes. And looking at bikes. Sometimes we enjoy looking at bikes so much we spend hours scouring for the next build, something new, something hot.

Nothing works quite as well to quench our thirst for hot bikes like some true professional-quality studio shots. Lucky for us at Iron Cycles, we have two photographers at the shop who can take some amazing photos, much better than any amateur will come up with. Add in a dose of studio lighting and some photo editing and we end up with true bike porn.

With that, let's get on to the bikes!

First up is an XL Lynskey Sportive that Steven was gracious enough to demo for us (and you). Built with a Reynolds Ouzo Pro fork, a mix of SRAM Red and Force, and HED Kermesse wheels. Toss in some Thomson bits, a Zipp bar, and Fizik saddle, and I would dare say this is a signature build from Iron Cycles, something you'll see a lot of.


These photos are of course a bit self-serving as well. While we enjoy building them and riding them, we do sell them. So the series won't just have sick shots, no, it'll also have a true build-kit price. Of course, with all custom builds everything can be changed, so these are just examples of what we can do.
